Total Metamorphosis

Kids—they grow up and change so fast, and before you know it, they're completely transformed! One minute they need you to cut up their vegetables, and the next, their teaching you how to grow them! Your little one has a green thumb and a love of nature, and knows just what flowers to plant to attract butterflies, her favorite! It's tough to know when exactly she went from playful tot to master botanist, but she loves to be outdoors, flitting about from plant to plant and teaching all she knows to her little brother.

It's bittersweet, eh? Why not celebrate her growth and let her spread her wings for the night in this Girl's Cozy Monarch Costume? It's every bit as youthful as it is cool, every bit as cozy as it is beautiful (and that's a hard balance to strike). Moreover, it captures her natural sensibilities just perfectly! She'll love it.

Design & Details

Here's how our amazing costume team designed this garment: they cocooned themselves in a room for hours, where no one heard them stir at all. Then...days, maybe months later, they emerged, holding this darling costume, fully formed! Amazing, huh? OK, so it may not have happened exactly like that, but you get the idea. This costume started from an idea and blossomed into the beautiful butterfly you see before you. Made by Us right in our studio, this look is comprised of a cuddly, zip-up black hoodie dress with attached monarch wings. Worn over her own leggings and footwear, this is a simple look that still manages to stun—kind of like your kid!

Spread Her Wings

Don't worry, she'll always be your little girl, no matter how much she changes. And now that she's got this great costume for Halloween, she can be both thematic (orange and black!) and true to her nature, all at once. Win-win!
